Understanding free speech

from Pomodoro Breaks · host Panigrahi Nirma

Think free speech is a noble democratic ideal? Think again. This provocative history reveals it as a dangerous concept born from greed and venal interests rather than high-minded philosophy. From 18th-century hacks to modern media giants, the right to speak has always been a double-edged sword: a shield for liberty and a weapon for the powerful to silence others. Explore the gritty, global evolution of our most misunderstood and weaponized political mantra.
